The marrus orthocanna is a group of zooids that link together to form a single stem. They’re created after a single fertilized egg is formed. Then, that creature will create genetic duplicates along the same biological stem. Once they mature, they work collectively to propel themselves across the water. They’re often found in cold waters like those of the northern Atlantic Ocean, the northwest Pacific Ocean and the Arctic Ocean.
